Went back Sunday PM. Much different than the first trip. Fish moving and actually had 3 contact the bait. Two hit the bait and were briefly on, one that came up and hit as I skid the bait on the surface trying to get it to dive(hook was fouled to one side), and another that hit just as bait started to go over a submerged bush(actually had both the fish and the bush hooked......for a while), and a third fish came up and bumped bait as it did a blowbye. Shoulda coulda woulda. Felt bad that I had missed out on putting one in the boat, but good that I had figured out some things about their location. On the earlier trip I had looked at a different type of location, but this time I specifically found things relating the three fish that hit, and another that boiled at the bait. One fish was spotted surfacing ahead of the boat. Of the 4 reacting to the bait, 3 were suspended in the foliage, one was what I would consider pretty tight to shore. Smallest fish was in low thirties, biggest probably upper thirties. I am looking to go again later this week.

If anybody I know is curious or going themselves, pm me for more specific info.

Water clarity, improved a little, temps now up in 70 degree range. Found more fish in foliage and bigger bait this trip. Very little pressure again, but I am guessing locals are not doing well consistently or they would be out there.
